August 31, 201015 yr Rios' stroke has been really good lately. It makes you wonder how crazy this sport is. He went a long long time with very few extra base hits, now he's bombing again. His last 2 homers I watched were things of beauty.
August 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 30, 2010 -> 09:58 PM) Thornton will be back on Saturday. I just don't see JR adding additional salary for a Fuentes type with a big, bloated contract. It's definitely not going to be another LH with Sale and Thornton down there. (This was KW's argument for NOT blocking the Fuentes move to MIN). And with Linebrink actually pitching admirably tonight, there's an argument (albeit MINISCULE) against adding another RHRP. Thornton back by the weekend is good news but that still 4-5 days and games away., No Putz , Threets out for the year, a tired Santos, another extra inning game tonight leaving Pena, Harrell and Torres. Pena and Torres recently pitched like 3 -4 innings apiece. I'd feel much better with another pitcher. Edited August 31, 201015 yr by CaliSoxFanViaSWside

August 31, 201015 yr Cant believe they came back and won If manny isnt in the lineup tomorrow, well... Oh, and Ozzball said manny can play LF *throws hands in air*
August 31, 201015 yr I hope rios enters sept. like he entered and finished may; Apr 29, 2010 to May 30, 2010 .343/.400/.667 1.067
August 31, 201015 yr You know what's weird? I had a feeling that Lillibridge was going to hit a homer to put us back on top. It crossed my mind the second he made that error.
August 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Aug 30, 2010 -> 10:18 PM) Manny = unbeaten streak for the rest of the year and a 12 - 0 world series run Are we playing a Game 163?
August 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 08:39 AM) Are we playing a Game 163? I think nothing would be sweeter than winning Game 163 in Minnesota this time. Right now, I seriously would think about using Jackson in that game, although I'm sure Ozzie would go with Danks or Buehrle if he had a choice.

Game 163 happens on the first day after the season with no offdays usually, so I'm not sure you really get to set your rotation at all. The Twins had to kill their rotation last year just to get into game 163.
August 31, 201015 yr I would rather face the Twins at their park. The Twins like hitting at the Cell.
